OFFENSE is the best defense and the most fun as well!

This thread really illustrates the main problem with PoE as a game... the vast difference between the "haves" and the "have-nots". The game is way too difficult until it suddenly becomes way too easy. There's no time in the middle to actually enjoy playing at your level.

Not really, there is adequat content for most gear levels. It's just at the absolute top, past 100 EX gear range, where you won't really have engaging content left, it will all be a cakewalk. Peoples problems usually stem from them trying to take on content they aren't ready for.
The "fun zone" is too narrow. People who trade just trade for items that hide this. They don't see the progression the same way a SSF player does.

The items that this guy is sporting on his "everything dies before they can act" character aren't items that a SSF character would ever be able to put together.
That's the peoples fault as far as i am concerned. When i am so obsessed with the goal and decide to skip the entire journey of getting there then that's my decision and the consequences of that are my problem. Personally i would also prefer this game to be SSF only so that people can't just decide to skip the entire progression via trade for their own sake but it's probably not gonna happen.

Getting items like that in SSF is very much possible, but probably not during a 3 month league unless you have no life aside from POE. But here again, playing league is a choice people make so..

I have to agree there. People want the best things way to quickly and easily. If you always look to get the perfect path to the best result, it's not gonna be fun the entire way there.
And after that it's too easy to be fun for them. But the way to get there should be the fun imo and not only the result.
I'm not saying people shouldn't try to get there as fast as possible and use every "trick" for it, but if you do that it was your own decision.

Why would you settle for low defense builds with lots of damage when you can just have high defense builds with lots of damage?

Well sure, offence is nice. But what you do in rituals where all mobs are packed in a small area. Sure, you can kill fast but what about ground effects or ritual laser bemas and so on.

Doesnt help, when you could technically kill all monsters instant but the monsters spawn one pack after the other. So you need to keep dodgeing or looking on the ground.

What about ranged mobs? Maybe with more arrows or that thunder stuff from the sky. Sometimes i dont even see the enemy and it kills me. How can tehre helt 30 Million dps when you die before you can do damage with such low life?

Area of Effect, or to be more precise, 124%+ increased Area of Effect literally wiping everything clear on and off screen and with double awakened spell cascades I dont even need to be any where near the action literally cast anywhere on the screen (even if far away in the other direction of where the mobs are) and everything dies instantly everywhere on and off screen. Also insane cast speed helps.

I don't find clearing any ritual difficult with or without HH.
